Lecture: Editing

Today in the Lecture with Jools about Editing, we had to come up with a plot and specific, shot, music I came up with a woman who was in a changing room, her friends come in with some bad news, so I thought you d have a mid shot of the woman in the changing room with her bag making noises as she pulls her clothes out, then you d see a long shot of the girls coming in the changing room, you d hear talking and a close up of the door opening and shutting, then a mid shot of the girls sitting down with her and a close up of her face when she receives the news.

• Dissonance: counterpoint techniques typically used to exploit, highlight discrepancies of image sound.
• Sound trailing may work, instead of dissolving it.
